Music is essential in the life in the church, but does it really matter who wrote the lyrics? It's easily agreed upon that we should only sing truth, but how does association play into our song selection? In this episode, we grapple with a question our own church has begun to tackle: what does the Bible have to say about who we partner with, including in our singing? We work out an answer to this along with exposing the deceptiveness of prolific worship ministries like Elevation, Hillsong, and Bethel.

It's a new year, but the same questions are burning in people's hearts, and Hell is one topic that never stops causing a stir. Though emotionally, this can be a difficult topic, it is one the Bible doesn't shy away from. So what are we to make of things like universalism or annihilation? Is eternal punishment fair? How important is this to the Gospel? We answer all these questions and more in our first episode of 2026.

Along with the snow, eggnog, and music that begins this time of year, there also comes an uptick in claims that Christmas is pagan and that we should not celebrate it. How should we navigate such concerns or rumours? In this episode, we briefly look at the background of various Christmas traditions and discuss a Christian way to approach this holiday.

As Christians, we believe in miracles, but do we believe in them for today? Or is that even the right question? In the popular and passionate discussion around spiritual gifts, one might think we're arguing over whether the Holy Spirit still does anything these days, but that is not the case. In this episode, we dive into the debate between cessationism and continuationism, and aim to demonstrate God's glorious purpose in both the distribution of gifts and the temporal nature of signs.

Any worthwhile pursuit takes discipline, and godliness is no different. As Christians, we know that we are supposed to live like Jesus, but how do we get there? Through the training grounds of spiritual disciplines. In this episode, we broach this often neglected and misunderstood topic to bring clarity and encouragement.

Few issues are as contested among Christians as women in ministry. But why is this so hotly debated in our day? Is it in fact something we can just agree to disagree on? In this episode, we examine the critical arguments and dangerous trajectories of getting this matter wrong. But more than that, our hope is that you would see the beauty and joy that comes when we live according to God's design.

Psalms is one of the most beloved books of the Bible, and for good reason! But it has so much more to offer than emotional relatability. The psalms are designed to guide our worship, our prayer, and our theology in ways we miss when we reduce them to expressive poetry—as much as they are that! In this episode, we look at the various functions of the book of Psalms and how we can rightly understand the portrait it paints of God, church, and ourselves.

Approaching the Bible can be a daunting task. Sometimes we feel safer in the poetry of psalms or in the Gospel narratives, but all of Scripture is needful! How, then, can we take in the full counsel of God and actually learn from it, instead of just falling into confusion? In this episode, we look at both practices and pitfalls for this important task.
